Due to the wishes 6f the septcgenarian, the occasion was not permitted to he made ail event of wide public celebration al¬ though many demands ' coining from various f|uarlcrsurgc(t-this.
, The remarkable career of the Ken¬ tucky Jewish boy who, as a lawyer,in Boston, played a promlhent part jii the fight, for the intrpduction of new stand¬ ards in the administratioir of public utilities in ^New Englandj since ¦ then . emulated in other parts of the country,
" his work in .investigating the principles of modern inRurahce and their applica¬ tion for the benelit of the working masses, his ¦championship for the pro¬ tection, of vyomen and minors in .indus¬ try and his part in settling labor dis¬ putes. Was praised by outstanding lead-^ ers of America arid American Jews in statements made public. ¦ '
'T. count it a privilege to be numbered among the frientls and iidniirers of Mr. Justice Brandcis, who will unite in exr- tending to'him congratulations and good wishes on the occasion of liis seventieth
". birthday," Harlan F. Stone, Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States, stated.

. store of . experience and of wisdom, which, encourage the cNpectation. andthe wish that^.hc may—continue his distin-
' ^uished service oiv the court for many . years to conie. An adequate estimate of his career as a judge of our highest court can be made only in tbc days yet to come, when the legal and cconohiic history of our times is seen, in.Its true perspective.
"For this, and for his stea.d fast cour¬ age arid independence, and the clarity of thought and expression with which he
, has year, by year carried on his judicial labors, he has the gratitude, not only of
,-,the-Judges and lawyers, but of countless, others in walks pf life remote from the mere machinery of the, law. It is a
, merited reward for a devoted , service, and I venture to think that no other would seem to hihi so worth while," Col. Edward M. House declared "There are few men of this generation whose careers are so interwoven with the life of our Republic during the! past :thirfj' years as that of,Justice Louis P. ¦Brandeis, He iias forged his way to the front-rank of; our intellectuals by the lucidity of his mind, coupled with an ability to see things as they are, and the gift to exxpress. his thoughts in force¬ ful and'eloquent terms.
"During the years when he was the people's advQirate, his conclusions upon publi9 quest ions were accepted as final l^y a multitude of Americans. . ' (Continued on page 4)

The formation of the Synagogue Council of .'America Is the culmination fif- a scries;, ofi conferences which oc¬ curred during the last eighteen months. Tlic sessions were held at the Mer¬ cantile Club and were attended by rep¬ resentatives of the three wings in Jew¬ ish religions life in this cpuntry; 'A characteristic featuVe of the conference was the dispatch with which the btisi- ncks was disposed of despite tiie wide divergence of opinion. ; Following two hours of discussion, the constitution was adopted.
In the preiimblcof .the constitution it is cleclared: ..
, "Whereas it is desirable that the na¬ tional religious organizations of Amer- .ica meet tp take counsel together for tiic purpose of speaking and acting unitedly in furthering such interests as .the con- sitituent .organizations have in common.- be it resolved that a Synagogue Council of America, composed of rep.resentatives of, national religious organizations of Americii be formed, it being clearly pro¬ vided that the Council ¦in.no way inter¬ fere with the religious oi- administrative autonomy of any of the constituent or¬ ganizations.
"The name of this organization shall bc "The Synagogue Council of Amer¬ ica," ¦ ¦ , ¦
''The organizations constituting this council shall be the Central Conference of American Rabbis, Rabbinical Assem¬ bly and, the Jewish Theological Semi¬ nary, the RabbinicaP Counitil of the Union .of Orthodox Jewish Congrega' tions of America, .Union"of: American Hebrew Congregations, ;Unibn; of Orth¬ odox Jewish Congregations' of Amer¬ ica, United Synagogue pf America, and such similar, organizations as ' may hi admitted from time to time. ¦ "Each constituent organization shall be entitled to three members in the Syn¬ agogue Cpuncii as well as to three al¬ ternates.

"The oflieers of this organization shall he a chairi|iaUi two vice chairmen, a secretary and a treasurer. They shall hold office for, one year, beginning with May and sb^ll dig!?barge the duties usu- iilly pertaining to their oiTices.

The living and dining rooms^.of the Alpha'Beta Mu liouse were bright with streamers and vari-colpred lamp shades. TIic vi.'iitiiig girls bad donned their pret¬ tiest masquerade costumes; their hosts oi the fraternity tried not to look, self- conscious in fancy dress. Squeezed in between the mantle, aglcam with athletic trophies and the piano, the best amateur orchestra on the campus poured forth a thundering stream of melody. Any¬ body, who khcw anything about college parties would have told you at a glance that the Thanksgiving dance of the Alpha Beta Mu liouse was already a^huge suc- ce.s.s!,. ¦ ¦
Dornthy Ranson, blonde, petite, viva¬ cious, was, to use her own'expressive phrase, "thrilled to death.". The Tlianks-
givingmasqnerade at tlic niost exclusive to speak lo a waiter?" fralehiity house on the campus, Tom "You mean Feltncr?' Elliot, quarterback, positively .scrambling "Yes; you see I'm froin . his home for her dance prograjn.; NoyWonder,to^yn¦ I—I.know bisr mother, and T know
trodnced mc to .you at that dance she gave last month," was the gallant answer. "Niiver inhid," to a meek-faced Fresh¬ man, who bad come up to claim his dance, "I'm going to take this, too. You don't mind, <.\o yon?" lobking down on bis prctly, little partner. . ' ¦
"Try jne and see," laughed Dorothy, but her mirth was a little, forced. Why, oh why, hadn't she remembered that Jake Fclliier was .working at one of the fra¬ ternities? And wiiy .hadn't he gone home [for the Tbanlwgiving holiday?. "If he starts a row at home, bc'lP never stop raving, he's such a .crank," she decided uncdmfortablyi "But maybe, if I get to sec'him and talk to him—"
Her smile was very guileless a.s the dance ended. "I don't know much about .college cti(|uctte," with, a littlct depre¬ cating huigh, "cause this is nly. first frat dance. Bui would it bc terribly wroiig
Dorothy's cheeks ilushpd witli happiness as she danced with, him. It was rather, wonderful to be pretty> popular-—and nincteeil., "Gec; but you do look nice!" Tom's .eyes were more eloquent than his words. "WJicrc did you ever dig up that dres^, anyhow?" ¦
Dorothy Ipokcd down complacently upon her lace fichu-, hooped skirts of rosy taffeta. "Up in an old trunk.in the garret," she answered. "I'm afraid it smells dreadfully of moth balls."
"Belonged to your grandmother, or your great-gi-aridmbther, didn't; it?"
, She blushed a little: "Let's go ou^and get some punch," abruptly changing! the subject, "but please.don't make the Usual remarks about the kick in it; I've heard 'em thisevening every time I got adrink. Sometimes, I think prohibition jokes are wor^e than prohibition,"
Tom greeted her sally with a roar- of laughter. How was he to know that the seemingly careless bon mot had been dropped,just a week before by Eiorotby>- Synica! elder brother; Dorothy; was not an original thinker, but she had a good memory and usually kept her dance,part ncrs amused. But, she made no more jokes that evening. ;
For as they paused before the punch bowl, wreathed with scarlet "murns"', one of the white-coated, waiters turned to stare at her; a boy gbout Tom's age, bright-eyed, ciirly-headed. ¦ "Hello!" said the waiter, wit!> something very much like a surprised whistle; then dived into the kitchen with his trayof dirty, glasses^ Tom stared after hini.
"Do you know Feltner?'' he asked. ' Dorothy felt hcreheekis- rivaling the table decorations.' Of all, places in the world to meet Jake Feltner—and acting as a waiter too! "He comes'from West'- crville too," she Stammered. "I used to know him at,high school."
"I guess he's all right," grumbled Tom, as they crowded their Way through the hall. "Heard the other day he's.likely to make Phi Beta Kappa. Unsociable devil, like most of the Jews on the campus. Don't see what the house pres¬ ident cverhired him for, anyhow?" .
"Don't you like Jews ?'' Dorptby asked him in a Very small voice,
Tom puffed himself Into an absurd imitation of his father, preparing to ad¬ dress a Rotary" Club; luncheon, "Aw, I'm not liarrow-minded,'* he protested, ¦T guess;Jews are all right in their place; .got one on the team this year, and he's an awful decent fellow and. all tliat. But as long as there afe other Christian fellows working their way through, we ought to.give them thej'obs first, don't you think so-?".
"I—I never went to college," pprothy evaded. "Just to my finishing school,' I met your coUsin. Adele's a lovely glrj, isn't she?" "

slie'd- be glad if j/took her a message from him."
Tom ¦ nodded approvingly. He had liked her ever since Adele's; dance when she had refused to.smoke; a genuine, pld-fasbioiied girl, who in all the e.x-^ citcment of her first frat dance wanted lo do a kindly action for an old neigh¬ bor. "Come on In the kitchen," he told her., "But don't you talk too long to Feltner, or I'll get jealous." ... ''."He wouldn't talk that way, if he knew," Dorothy told hcrselj miserab^y. ,She.;.^clt' even more embari-assed' and ashamed when Jake, greeted her coldly, and'listened with a polite, detached in¬ terest Vto* her prattle 'of "the folks at; home." ,¦,¦".";¦¦
"1 didn't expect to see you here," she ended lan'icly.:
;"A]id I (Ijdn.'t expect to sec you.here, either,'' he snapped; "I never thought I'd see Elliot bringing a Jewish girl to one of the house dances." ; .
I^e had lowered his voice, much,t'o the outrage of the colored cook, languidly washing glasses at the sink. But to Dor¬ othy it. seemed that the whole world must-have heard him;,. . "I don't know; what you're shouting abouti'' slie declared peevishly^ '
"Yes, you do. Does youi: mother know you came on Elliot's bid?!-*
"You kuow,.mamma doesn't care who I.go out with as long as theyVe nice," she answered defensively. "And Mr.
Elliot's—"' /:'¦ ¦¦','¦
"Quite all right in every respect and one of the most jiopular men on, the canipUs,":Jake Feltner agreed. "I know all about him.. But does he know all about you?" -
"You mean about my being Jewish? Suppose he doesn't. Yoii know iny folks have^bcen fu,ssy and religious like yours anyhow, there wasn't any Jewish Sun¬ day school or ariythirifi at home. So when I went to school—-" she'stopped, a, little confused under Jake's- satiric, eyes.', /.- ' '¦ ¦ :¦. -¦ ¦. r'._ ^

My, I'd have a little, more pride if I were you,"
They had oiten quarreled from the days when Jake had teased her by pulling her favorite kitten's tail or poking out her doll's eyes; later at high school over dates and other similarly weighty niat-. ters. <, B'ut never like this. , Dorothy's mindi flew to a Uttle package of letters in liei' writing desk at home, letters Jake had found time to scrawl to her between hia classes and his work at, this liatc- 'fnl place.

Among those who will Ukc an in^-. portant part in the proceedings of tbe. Conference are the Zionist ,lcaclerj. Dr. Weizman, Dr. Stephen S.

Responses to the jnvitations sent out by Nathan Straus, chairman of the In^ vitations Committee of the Conference, . indicate that this will likely be thc.larg- ¦; est attended conference in the history of American.Zionism.
The wide response to the invitations, is gratifying Zio.nist leaders' for two, rea.soiis, first, :is auguring well for the' ,_^ success ¦of. the caiiipaignj but even more ' perhaps as indicating that tbe hopes en-; tertained for some: tihie,' of enlisting'not . only the financial support, but the active participation in'the direction of the cam- .; paigii. on the part: of Jews the country over, wiir be realized.^ .

"For this, and for his stea.d fast cour¬ age arid independence, and the clarity of thought and expression with which he
, has year, by year carried on his judicial labors, he has the gratitude, not only of
,-,the-Judges and lawyers, but of countless, others in walks pf life remote from the mere machinery of the, law. It is a
, merited reward for a devoted , service, and I venture to think that no other would seem to hihi so worth while," Col. Edward M. House declared "There are few men of this generation whose careers are so interwoven with the life of our Republic during the! past :thirfj' years as that of,Justice Louis P. ¦Brandeis, He iias forged his way to the front-rank of; our intellectuals by the lucidity of his mind, coupled with an ability to see things as they are, and the gift to exxpress. his thoughts in force¬ ful and'eloquent terms.

A TllANKSGIVING STORY

Rabbi Matt Will Address East Broad Street Temple On November 2 6 ih
, On November 2(ith, Rabhi C. Divid Matt of Minneapolis, Miml., will de¬ liver an. address on "The Future of Israel" before the congregation of the East Broad Street Teiiiple._ Rabbi Matt is one of the best known Conservative Rabbis in the middle west. He has spoken and lectured in all of the larger cities of Minnesota, Wisconsin and' 11- linoi.s. His work for the Jewish Na¬ tional cause, as well as hia: untiring efforts on behalf of Jewish education, have won for him a unique place in the American Rabbinate. ,
He is an honor graduate of the Uni¬ versity of Pennsylvania;; and received his Rabbinical training at, the Jewish Theological Seminary "f^ America/.'Havrt. ing serve popular-—and nincteeil., "Gec; but you do look nice!" Tom's .eyes were more eloquent than his words. "WJicrc did you ever dig up that dres^, anyhow?" ¦
Dorothy Ipokcd down complacently upon her lace fichu-, hooped skirts of rosy taffeta. "Up in an old trunk.in the garret," she answered. "I'm afraid it smells dreadfully of moth balls."
"Belonged to your grandmother, or your great-gi-aridmbther, didn't; it?"
, She blushed a little: "Let's go ou^and get some punch," abruptly changing! the subject, "but please.don't make the Usual remarks about the kick in it; I've heard 'em thisevening every time I got adrink. Sometimes, I think prohibition jokes are wor^e than prohibition,"
Tom greeted her sally with a roar- of laughter. How was he to know that the seemingly careless bon mot had been dropped,just a week before by Eiorotby>- Synica! elder brother; Dorothy; was not an original thinker, but she had a good memory and usually kept her dance,part ncrs amused. But, she made no more jokes that evening. ;
For as they paused before the punch bowl, wreathed with scarlet "murns"', one of the white-coated, waiters turned to stare at her; a boy gbout Tom's age, bright-eyed, ciirly-headed. ¦ "Hello!" said the waiter, wit!> something very much like a surprised whistle; then dived into the kitchen with his trayof dirty, glasses^ Tom stared after hini.
"Do you know Feltner?'' he asked. ' Dorothy felt hcreheekis- rivaling the table decorations.' Of all, places in the world to meet Jake Feltner—and acting as a waiter too! "He comes'from West'- crville too," she Stammered. "I used to know him at,high school."
"I guess he's all right," grumbled Tom, as they crowded their Way through the hall. "Heard the other day he's.likely to make Phi Beta Kappa. Unsociable devil, like most of the Jews on the campus. Don't see what the house pres¬ ident cverhired him for, anyhow?" .
"Don't you like Jews ?'' Dorptby asked him in a Very small voice,
Tom puffed himself Into an absurd imitation of his father, preparing to ad¬ dress a Rotary" Club; luncheon, "Aw, I'm not liarrow-minded,'* he protested, ¦T guess;Jews are all right in their place; .got one on the team this year, and he's an awful decent fellow and. all tliat. But as long as there afe other Christian fellows working their way through, we ought to.give them thej'obs first, don't you think so-?".
"I—I never went to college," pprothy evaded. "Just to my finishing school,' I met your coUsin. Adele's a lovely glrj, isn't she?" "
'I'm strong for Adele-,since' she in-

slie'd- be glad if j/took her a message from him."
Tom ¦ nodded approvingly. He had liked her ever since Adele's; dance when she had refused to.smoke; a genuine, pld-fasbioiied girl, who in all the e.x-^ citcment of her first frat dance wanted lo do a kindly action for an old neigh¬ bor. "Come on In the kitchen," he told her., "But don't you talk too long to Feltner, or I'll get jealous." ... ''."He wouldn't talk that way, if he knew," Dorothy told hcrselj miserab^y. ,She.;.^clt' even more embari-assed' and ashamed when Jake, greeted her coldly, and'listened with a polite, detached in¬ terest Vto* her prattle 'of "the folks at; home." ,¦,¦".";¦¦
"1 didn't expect to see you here," she ended lan'icly.:
;"A]id I (Ijdn.'t expect to sec you.here, either,'' he snapped; "I never thought I'd see Elliot bringing a Jewish girl to one of the house dances." ; .
I^e had lowered his voice, much,t'o the outrage of the colored cook, languidly washing glasses at the sink. But to Dor¬ othy it. seemed that the whole world must-have heard him;,. . "I don't know; what you're shouting abouti'' slie declared peevishly^ '
"Yes, you do. Does youi: mother know you came on Elliot's bid?!-*
"You kuow,.mamma doesn't care who I.go out with as long as theyVe nice," she answered defensively. "And Mr.
Elliot's—"' /:'¦ ¦¦','¦
"Quite all right in every respect and one of the most jiopular men on, the canipUs,":Jake Feltner agreed. "I know all about him.. But does he know all about you?" -
"You mean about my being Jewish? Suppose he doesn't. Yoii know iny folks have^bcen fu,ssy and religious like yours anyhow, there wasn't any Jewish Sun¬ day school or ariythirifi at home. So when I went to school—-" she'stopped, a, little confused under Jake's- satiric, eyes.', /.- ' '¦ ¦ :¦. -¦ ¦. r'._ ^

My, I'd have a little, more pride if I were you,"
They had oiten quarreled from the days when Jake had teased her by pulling her favorite kitten's tail or poking out her doll's eyes; later at high school over dates and other similarly weighty niat-. ters.
